HatsChat2 Chatbox

Can i add my custom emotes ?

Yes, it still works.

Still work? Haven't seen many comments the past few days. Just wanna know before I buy :) I'm gonna be using it for darkrp if I do!

ive done all the instructions

I cant get the server setting box to appear in the hatschat2 setting incon

So does this now work on hns the chat tags ? or no

To the right of the input box, there's a cog icon. Click that to change settings.

So there's no way he can disable it :o? or can i as a player "user" non admin, Change it :o? Its so anoying for me (as a slow typer)

There are two fade settings, one for text (Default 2 seconds, max 120) and one for the chatbox itself (default 0.2 seconds, max 5)

Hi mister "My Hat Stinks" A freind of mine was using your mod and wonder why does the menu fade? He told me it should say "fadetimer = 50" or something like that, But it goes away every like 5 seconds tops after, Any suggestions?

Your paypals not working m8y

Hats, a player wont see his own message appearing once he sent it, but other players do. eeeh?

Thanks that fixed it.

@ZechPL, revert changes as per this pull request: https://github.com/garrynewman/garrysmod/pull/971 Changes to those files cause issues and don't even work as intended.

Chat doesnt seem to be working after gmod update <Team>" say "can u see this? " L 06/04/2015 - 20:36:03: Lua Error: Error: hook->PlayerSay returned a non-string!

mt_hat_stinks please add me on steam i want to talk with you :)

Wow, that's very nice of you! The comments will certainly make this much easier. I'll check this out when I have a chance. Thanks again!

I've made an example for you: http://pastebin.com/BftPKSPB

I see. I've not been very successful trying to use the net library lately, but I'll see what I can do with this info. Thanks!

@ Vernoctus, the update was very minor, you won't need it unless you're debugging.

ply:ChatPrint() only sends a single string, generally if you want more advanced messages you use the net library. When you do use the net library, though, you can have access to chat.AddText which allows you to add a few different tables HatsChat can read. For example, an emote:

{"EMOTE", mat=Material( "some/material/path.png" ), str="EmoteLabel", size={width,height}, matpath="some/material/path.png"}

Line Icon:

{"LINEICON", "some/material/path.png"}

Wow, no updates for over a month and then the day after I buy the script it gets an update. What are the chances right? XD Since you're apparently still working on this thing a little I was wondering, is there any way to use it to do something kinda like chatPrint? I.E., I'd like to be able to have the server print messages to the users just like with chatPrint, but with the ability to add lineicons, colors, and maybe emoticons to it. I have a little bit of very limited lua knowledge, if that helps.

Hey so im an admin on a server and pretty much we have hats chat 2 but we can't use the tags, this is for a hide and seek server ?

Yes. In the menu, where it asks for "Rank/SteamID" enter a SteamID instead of a rank.

is there a way to make it so that certian SteamIDS can have chat tags? like i want only my steam id to have the [Developer] tag without having to make a developer rank
